Heller on June unemployment: ‘Washington needs to focus on real solutions’

Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., reacting to today's report that Nevada's unemployment rose to 12.4 percent in June, said this in a statement:

"President Obama can't talk his way out of the troubling fact that Nevada's unemployment rate is growing. The policies of this administration are making our economy worse, and Nevadans are feeling the pain. Throwing money at the problems through big-government interventions and programs clearly does not work. Washington needs to focus on real solutions that restrain spending and promote stability so Nevadans can get back to work."
